Honestly, I was in awe by r/bitcoin's reaction to this whole DAO debacle. I thought that the whole Mt Gox "incident" has taught them some empathy to people losing money but I was very wrong.

Empathy? Bitcoiners? A large chunk of them are anarcho-capitalists who measure a person's right to survive by how much money they can make, and most of the rest are in it to make themselves rich. There's a fair few who are mostly in it just because it's cool tech, but they avoid Bitcoin forums now due to the former two groups.

Note that this covers most other cryptocurrencies as well.
